51. Foreshadowing (1)

"Sister Gu, time bomb/bomb!"

Shi Dong found the flashing red light in the corner of the storage room. It was the countdown stopwatch on the LED screen, and there were only more than 9 minutes left before the induction/explosion time.

"I have to find a way to escape from here!"

Gu Qingtong looked around whether there were windows or vents around him, but there was no gain. The storage room was a nearly confined space. One side was a door connected to the kitchen, and the other side was a door leading to the sales window in front of the cake shop. Both doors were currently locked and could not be opened from the inside.

Another minute passed.

Gu Qingtong knocked on the iron door connecting the kitchen side. As expected, the door panel made an empty echo, indicating that the door body structure is hollow.

"Sister Gu, I found this!" Cao Zhe ran over, holding a small liquefied petroleum gas tank in his hand. "Using the heat burned by combustible gases, boil the door and you can escape."

"No!" Gu Qingtong rejected, "There is no ventilation equipment here, which will hurt ourselves..."

She didn't finish her sentence, and suddenly there was a violent knock outside the door.

Through the thick door panel, Ji Heng's voice sounded out of reach: "Xiaotong! Xiaotong, are you inside?"

"At--" Shi Dong pounced on him first, shouting close to the door panel, "Teacher Ji! Teacher Ji! Find a way to open the door, there is a bomb in the storage room!"

Ji Heng obviously heard the call for help.

Soon, the hidden lock on the door was destroyed by violence, revealing a circular hole about ten centimeters in diameter.

His voice sounded again: "Don't worry, there are locking tongues on three sides of this kind of security door. I'll go find the broken/disassemble tool immediately!"

Gu Qingtong felt a little relieved. She turned around and faced Shi Dong's anxious eyes.

"Sister Gu, it's only six minutes!"

"Piece the flour bags on the periphery of the bomb/bomb to simulate the effect of the sandbag on the blasting site. Even if the explosion/bomb occurs, the damage to the human body can be reduced."

Gu Qingtong led the way and started the action.

Cao Zhe patted Shi Dong on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid, Xiao Shitou, Sister Gu and I are here, we won't have any trouble!"

They worked together to stack all the flour bags in the storage room on the outside of the time bomb, forming a protective wall.

In the last three minutes of the countdown, Ji Heng finally came back.

He reminded loudly: "You retreat and try to stay away from the door!" With a loud bang, a big hole suddenly appeared in the iron door, and sparks were still sparking on the edge of the iron plate being cut by high-temperature gas.

Ji Heng pushed the air cutting machine aside and waved to the people in the storage room.

"Come out quickly!"

Gu Qingtong asked the youngest Shi Dong to go out first, Cao Zhe was the second, and he kept the last one.

"There's no time!"

Ji Heng was anxious and pulled Gu Qingtong without saying a word, and half-carried her and half-draged her to the safe outdoor space.

None of the four of them spoke first, and their eyes were all focused on the cake shop kitchen.

Gu Qingtong always counted the countdown in her heart, but she silently chanted zero, and the expected explosion did not happen. In the quiet alley, there was only the sound of drizzle.

"We're fooled," she said.

"Where is that little worker just now?" Shi Dong hated being fooled the most, and he was angry for a moment, "I want to catch him back and examine him clearly!"

"Police, brother...I'm here..."

The worker was tied up with a thick hemp rope and squatted on the ground with his hair and work clothes. His hair and work clothes were wet from the rain.

"As soon as you enter, I feel something is wrong," said Ji Heng. "When I broke in, I found that this kid was locking the door and threw the key into the drain of the sewer. I tied him first and then removed the door."

Shi Dong came out of it and wished he could strip the small worker's skin.

"Who asked you to set a trap?"

"Brother Xiao, it's Brother Xiao..." I don't know if I was cold all over in the rain or was scared by Shi Dong, but the worker suddenly started to shake like a sieve, "I dare not ignore him, I'm afraid, afraid..."

"He's drugged/addicted!"

Gu Qingtong was quick-witted and pulled off the chef's chef's hat, folded it into a small ball and stuffed it into his mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue in a daze. She turned on the screen of her phone and found that there was still no signal at this time.

Cao Zhe said: "Sister Gu, what should I do next?"

"No matter whether the bomb is true or not, we must contact Team Pan immediately, and Xiao Wu Haiyang and others to evacuate the crowd in the food street as quickly as possible!"

-

After a night of investigation, the safety hazards of the food street were completely eliminated.

After seeing off his colleagues from the dismantling/immunition team, Pan Shaofang returned to the office with relief. As soon as he looked up, Gu Qingtong was walking towards this side.

"Captain Pan, Fu Yuli's cause of death was asphyxiation caused by an excessive injection of methyl/yl/benzene/propane/amine, not drowning. This is the latest autopsy report."

Pan Shaofang sighed: "I didn't expect that the turn of the situation will turn, and the murderer will still be at large in the end."

Gu Qingtong asked: "Last time Haiyang was seconded by the drug control team to perform a mission, can you tell me the specific details?"

"That thing is urgent, wired/person leaked/informed, Han Xiao checked into the hot spring holiday hotel in the northern suburbs." Pan Shaofangluo thought, and said one by one, "Because Team Wang had helped the anti-drug team to eliminate the lurking local snake in Jinyang City as Han Xiao, this time, the anti-drug team decided to ask Haiyang, who had played Han Xiao's confidant, for help."

"But, it seems that the subsequent progress is not going well?"

"Yes, Han Xiao did not show up that night, but the anti-drug team's line/person was killed in the room where Han Xiao lived."

Gu Qingtong presented the detailed list of funds income and expenditure to Pan Shaofang for review.

"We have re-checked the total amount of Fu Yuli's inheritance, including real estate and company mergers and acquisitions, totaling 49 million yuan. This amount, plus Fu Yuli's own investment income, has accumulated total assets of 60 million yuan."

Pan Shaofang thought for a while and said, "Sixty million? Isn't this the money Fu Yuli called to the cancelled account?"

"Captain Pan, I guess," Gu Qingtong's words were loud and clear, "Han Xiao and Fu Yuli know each other. They have worked together in business, and it is not ruled out that Fu Yuli is killed after knowing too much insider information."

"You mean, Fu Yuli has been involved in drug dealing or drug dealing?"

"In the early stage, she was only responsible for investing money, but later she realized that she was illegal and wanted to get out of it..."

Pan Shaofang shook his head slightly: "Xiao Gu, your speculation makes sense, but I always feel that things are not that simple."

Gu Qingtong said: "So, I want to apply to you to re-invest this case!"

"I can understand your mood." Pan Shaofang said in confusion, "But Xiao Gu, you think about it based on the existing evidence - assuming that the field of Fu Yuli's investment involves poison, and the partner happens to be Han Xiao. But that guy has always acted secretly. He activated the old IP address and set up a trap to lead us to the food street. What is the purpose?"

"I think he is going to challenge our bottom line."

Pan Shaofang asked back: "The result of the surprise interrogation was that the small worker in the cake shop did not see Han Xiao himself. He was used as cannon fodder because he had no money to buy drugs/products. The computer, which was used as a large amount of money for online/silver transfers was remotely controlled, and the person behind the scenes could complete the operation without showing up in the cake shop storage room. Xiao Gu, think about it carefully, what are the benefits for Han Xiao tossing for a lot of effort?"

This question stumped Gu Qingtong.

She frowned and thought deeply, but she couldn't get the most reasonable answer for a long time.

-

The annual summer book fair and publishing industry exchange meeting kicked off at the Jinyang Convention and Exhibition Center.

At this year's event, there are natural reports.

Huixinyuan Seedling Company run by Ji Heng's adoptive mother Li Jie, provided flower support for this exchange meeting.

Several pots of sun flowers and jasmine were placed in the corridors and booths. The flowers were elegant and the fragrance of flowers was filled with, adding a lively and lively atmosphere to the venue.

Gu Qingtong made every effort to re-invest Fu Yuli's murder case and could not spare time to visit the exhibition with Ji Heng.

She gave the ticket to Shi Dong, who loves reading very much.

Shi Dong is a book fan of Cai Xiangli, a well-known mystery novel writer. He heard that the great god he admired would sign and sell books on site this time, so he hurriedly asked Pan Shaofang for leave, and then rushed to the venue impatiently.

Cai Xiangli has a commendable talent and brainstorm.

As the publishing industry is declining, only Cai Xiangli's books have maintained a good-selling momentum.

Cai Xiangli's new book "Spring Mud" writes a sad love story: In order to protect the hero, the heroine was unfortunately stabbed to death by a burglary gangster. The hero buried her body under a crabapple tree in his backyard. Soon afterwards, the gangster who killed the heroine died on the street. The finale is the hero's confession. It turns out that he arranged a bureau and carefully planned to send the gangster who killed the heroine to death, thereby avenging him.

Such a hearty story caused quite a stir at the signing ceremony.

A reader who wanted to be named spreads remarks on social media - he said that the story comes from Cai Xiangli's real experience, and the heroine is Tian Xiaomei, the secretary who has worked with Cai Xiangli for six years.

The reader claimed: "Tsai Xiangli is a combination of the hero and the criminal, and Tian Xiaomei was killed by Cai Xiangli!"

Although the reader was reported, he was temporarily detained for defamation.

However, the bad influence has been caused, and the contract expires, and the publishing house decided not to renew the contract with Cai Xiangli.

Gu Qingtong learned the whole story from Shi Dong and took the time to read the book "Spring Mud".

The tone of the story gives people a sense of discomfort from the beginning.

Cai Xiangli's words imply desolate and decisive. There is no barrier to reading on the surface, but it has to be admitted that this story is so foreshadowing readers. The author seems to have made up his mind to reverse and reverse again, but the finale seems too straightforward and is suspected of being unfinished.

Since the beginning of summer, Ji Heng has moved into Gu Qingtong's home.

The morning wind was a little cooler, so he gently closed the balcony window and said, "Xiaotong, breakfast is ready."

Gu Qingtong closed the book and asked inconsistently: "If you love someone deeply and your love imprisons her freedom, will you let her fly away, or will you destroy her and keep her by your side forever?"
